Absolutely machang.

Bakamoona Monday, 15 November 2010 05:07 AM

At last..... Now the JVPers must be feeling what we Sri Lankans went through during their terror days. A BIG thank you to whoever did this to these JVP murderers.

lankaputha Monday, 15 November 2010 05:11 AM

Pawam Appa. JVP is not even welcomed by the people who suffered most during the last 30 years

saranga Monday, 15 November 2010 05:17 AM

Open ur mouth dude, I wanna put a gold coin!

Saman/Saouth Africa Monday, 15 November 2010 05:19 AM

These g ys must remember 1988-89

Ane Anichchan Monday, 15 November 2010 05:24 AM

This is the problem, Handunnethi and his supports were not wearing helmets when they were assaulted. Next time make sure when they address meetings in Jaffna to comply with this requirement!

Upul Monday, 15 November 2010 05:29 AM

Why. Not going with what you wanted say?

Upul Monday, 15 November 2010 05:30 AM

Realy? Talking like Mangala

seguson Monday, 15 November 2010 05:31 AM

You said it "Law Graduates". JVPers are trying their level best to mess our country. And the people are not stupid anymore and they will kick any ones's ass if they try play around with the public's life.

Jix Monday, 15 November 2010 05:37 AM

Why why haven’t you herd ane? Its a cool clothes and accessories store noh..

Puwak Badeliya Monday, 15 November 2010 05:47 AM

It is not correct to attack anyone but it is also not correct to create problems. These idiotic JVPers are trying to create problems in a place which has seen enough trouble for 30 years but is now free. So they kind of deserved this !
Hope these idiots recover from their injuries soon and learn a lesson from it too.

Thikshana Monday, 15 November 2010 06:11 AM

Who are the cuprits this time,,, from Jaffna or Kelaniya?

Don Monday, 15 November 2010 06:14 AM

Thoguh earlier i like JVP , now i hate JVP. But still when i see SJ i feel sorry for him. But the most interesting is to see Minister DD is helping them. Good move

nivendra Monday, 15 November 2010 06:28 AM

probably the guy who's next to them...EPDP is behind most of this stuff

Puwak Badeliya Monday, 15 November 2010 06:29 AM

Good question Dinithi ! Whenever this man mentions it you ask this question. So cute.

I hate this Banana Republic thing too. He has picked it up somewhere and keeps using it without knowing what it means.

Puwak Badeliya Monday, 15 November 2010 06:30 AM

Aiyo Kadira, you and your banana republic. You mention it so often that your banana is now public and it is so ablik !

sf Monday, 15 November 2010 05:02 AM

Why cant opposition parties have meetings wherever they want? This is very bad for our country...

Seelan Monday, 15 November 2010 06:36 AM

Your expectation will not be fulfilled. People are not too foolish as you punks - Law Graduates !

Muditha Monday, 15 November 2010 06:43 AM

No offense but after the carnage they cause in the late 80's they are actually fussing about small cuts and bruises??

hemantha kulatunga Monday, 15 November 2010 07:29 AM

JVP should not be allowed to destabilized peace in Jaffna although thuggery should be condemned. Wherever they go, they make a scene to attract attention.

Ranjit Monday, 15 November 2010 08:13 AM

Is LTTE replaced by another terror gang? In a way it a lesson to be learned by JVP for supporting MR.

Hemal Kirtisinghe Monday, 15 November 2010 08:22 AM

True but no body has the right to destroy this beautiful country

Arunalu Monday, 15 November 2010 08:58 AM

That type of behavior should be condemned

Cynic Monday, 15 November 2010 09:24 AM

Everyone knows who is responsible. Everyone is too scared to say who it is.

Modawansa Monday, 15 November 2010 10:34 AM

Well done Karuna.Great show.

Politics Sucks Monday, 15 November 2010 10:51 AM

JVP should realized how painful it is to be in the receiving side of an assault, which they carried out "whole sale" in the era of 1970s & 80s.....

Rohan Monday, 15 November 2010 12:08 PM

I suapect this was an LTTE act or tamil , we sinhalese are civilise and do not involve these type of activites or actions Rohan

Hasiya Monday, 15 November 2010 12:49 PM

So what????

Hasiya Monday, 15 November 2010 12:50 PM

Are u a Sri Lankan?

tom Monday, 15 November 2010 02:10 PM

whoever did, government should need to clarify that, Is this the Democrazy in Sri Lanka,,

dpl Monday, 15 November 2010 03:35 PM

ltte wipe out for good why not wipe out J V P criminals.

Sirimal Sunday, 14 November 2010 10:48 PM

That is applicable for regions other than North, East and Vanni becuae Rajapakse family is in the process of trying to become sole owners to rule without opposition.

ampare son Sunday, 14 November 2010 04:56 PM

thats no good.anyone can do politics anyware. this country.

L. Bopage Sunday, 14 November 2010 04:57 PM

However, it is a good move

Krish Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:03 PM

Ask Minister Keheliya he should be knowing this. He will reveal this tomorrow in a media briefing and go on saying "" Some tamil civilians those who against this function to be held tomorrow had attended the meeting had been attacked by pro JVP supporters and its cat paw IUSF.

manjula Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:05 PM

Jaffna people for sure !! they have realized that these dumb ass will soon destroy peaceful life there !!!

Kadira Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:05 PM

Things are really getting out of hand. A fast track to the Banana Republic.

steve Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:09 PM

Did JVP get permission from Douglas aka Mervyn of north?

Deepal Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:14 PM

GOSL will never do this. They are Saints to the letter. No thuggery will be entertained by GOSL.

Well, this is the stand they will take anyway. What a laugh?

Sri Lankan1 Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:26 PM

Who said this? JVP..thats the point..how critic... ah

Assay Bayai! Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:29 PM

wow I thought the government officially declared the terrorism ended in May 2009??????

Thinuka Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:35 PM

Exactly..

pissu balla Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:41 PM

JVP should be definitely punished for bringing MR into power.

Abdul Razeen Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:45 PM

No offense, but it's kind of hard to feel sorry for the JVP. For the disasters they have brought upon this country and the problems they continue to make, these things are to be expected.

Fair N Square Sunday, 14 November 2010 05:57 PM

Be happy that they just assaulted u n left to tell a story than just hang u by ur feet.

Dinithi Sunday, 14 November 2010 07:13 PM

What is a banana republic?

Thomas Sunday, 14 November 2010 04:51 PM

Assualed by whom, by Tamils of Jaffna or by GOSL supporters?

Incognito Monday, 15 November 2010 01:06 AM

This is an international conspiracy - and USA is behind it along with UN...with backing from UK.

Smart Aleck Monday, 15 November 2010 01:19 AM

Must be part of the 18th Celebrations of the King and His Rule.

jayant Monday, 15 November 2010 01:39 AM

Whoever it is, no one has the right to turn to violence without provocation and those who support such assaults must be taken to task under terrorism act.

sw Monday, 15 November 2010 01:42 AM

People of Jaffna have no part in this.

kokiya Monday, 15 November 2010 03:22 AM

very good move ...these people are no good for the country

Raymond Monday, 15 November 2010 03:58 AM

Whom can we trust...? Everyone that the people turn to with great confidence, let them down after sometime... Quo Vadis?

Lanka Law Graduates Monday, 15 November 2010 04:11 AM

Very soon Sinhala and Tamil fights start all over the country. Is that we expected after 32 years of civil war?.

Podi Lamaya Monday, 15 November 2010 04:28 AM

Pau Ane..

rajs Monday, 15 November 2010 04:29 AM

by reading this news, i am wondering what kind of citizens are sri lankan

lasantha Monday, 15 November 2010 04:30 AM

this is not good.everyone should have a right to do politics in every corner of the country ..jvp has come to democratic politics since 90 s..this time jvp is the victim .next time who will be?

spark Monday, 15 November 2010 04:44 AM

A typical country where the leaders and citizens behave like monkeys...in simple terms uncivilized.

priyantha Monday, 15 November 2010 04:50 AM

JVP is trying to get the place of TNA by organising this sort of protest campaign. now JVP=TNA

EW Golding Monday, 15 November 2010 04:56 AM

Obviously GOSL people - maybe military.
The Tamils are not so stupid as to attack visiting JVPers coming to support the release of detainees.

Percy Mandawala Monday, 15 November 2010 04:59 AM

JVP members are the real heros of the country.
